Hua Yifei picked up the teacup, tilted his head back and gulped it down, then stood up to leave.
"There's always a way out, Father, don't worry too much!" Mo Lan said, seeing Hua Yifei's chest heaving with anger.
"Lan'er is right. We'll deal with whatever comes our way. Your father and brother will definitely protect you." Hua Yifei left with a look of relief after hearing his daughter's words of comfort.
Hua Fengyu looked at his sister with a scrutinizing gaze. Could an illness really change a person?
"What are your plans, little sister?"
"Not for now, but it's possible to delay it for a while..." The original owner's body was delicate, and it would take some time to recover to its peak condition.
Even so, it didn't stop her from making some preparations.
If all else fails, doesn't the mandala have weapons?
Choose a dark and stormy night, and you can just shoot it all!
Hua Fengyu smiled as he listened to his sister's suggestion. "What you say is right. Before White Tiger Cliff's ambitions are fully exposed, besides taking precautions ourselves, we should also spread the word about Hu Biao's ambitions. There are many villages of all sizes around here. We all understand the principle that if one of us is gone, the other will be gone."
Hearing Hua Fengyu's suggestion, a smile flashed in Mo Lan's eyes. She was indeed a smart child. When outnumbered, one had to make a big fuss.
Many hands make light work!
Only the squeaky wheel gets the candy!
Even if Hu Biao was ambitious, he wouldn't dare to easily provoke public anger!
Otherwise, I wouldn't mind reaping the benefits without lifting a finger!
"Brother is right, this path is indeed feasible. However, we must spread the news discreetly to avoid getting ourselves into trouble!"
Hearing his sister's tone, Hua Fengyu cast another scrutinizing glance at her.
The two stared at each other, but in the end, Mo Lan couldn't help but laugh.
"My eldest brother is exceptionally intelligent; he's sure to be a great leader in the future!"
"To be the head of the family? With my health, I'm afraid I'm not up to the task."
Suppressing the strange feeling in his heart, Hua Fengyu fiddled with the quilt in his hand, concealing the sadness in his eyes, and made a self-deprecating remark.
Mo Lan sized up the boy opposite her. In her memory, this unfortunate child seemed to suffer from a strange disease—loss of the five senses.
Humans have five senses: sight, hearing, smell, taste, touch, etc. Hua Fengyu is missing the last sense, touch.
I've heard that people with this condition can't feel hot or cold, pain or itching, smoothness or roughness, softness or hardness, etc.
A pity flashed in Mo Lan's eyes; it was truly a pity that she had lost all five senses!
But at the same time, I can't help but laugh. They are definitely siblings, and neither of them is in good health.
Just as Mo Lan was about to say a few words of comfort, Hua Bao came running in, panting.
"Young Miss, the chieftain has sent someone to say that the doctor from White Tiger Cliff has arrived!"
Hua Fengyu and Mo Lan exchanged a glance; they were indeed impatient!
"You should go lie down in bed for a while; the other party doesn't mean you any good!"
Looking at her soft, boneless arms and legs, Mo Lan knew it wasn't the right time for a direct confrontation.
A moment later, Hua Yifei entered with Hu Biao and a doctor carrying a medicine box.
In the side hall, only Hua Fengyu was sitting there drinking tea.
"Feng Yu, how is your sister?"
"Didn't Chief Hu bring a doctor? Let the doctor examine him first to see if he's alright."
As he spoke, Hua Fengyu glanced at Hu Biao indifferently, his brows furrowing slightly. With looks like that, he still wants to marry his sister?
Hu Biao didn't take Hua Fengyu's sizing up to seriously; a sickly brother-in-law like him was no problem at all.
After exchanging pleasantries, the doctor sat down and took Mo Lan's pulse.
